BXBX NOVEL Chapter 101 - 101: Strategy
“Crack-a-lack!”
It’s my turn! It’s my turn!
Seeing the fresh Test Flavor Value after Dan Bao being tested, Spicy, who stood by, was getting impatient.
According to the Flavor Value knowledge Dan Bao just told her, she could have up to 100 points of Flavor Value as a one-star Food Spirit.
What would her Flavor Value be?
“Come in.”
Jiang Gang, who was responsible for controlling the tester, chuckled on the side.
However, he already had a guess about Spicy’s Flavor Value.
After all, he knew that Spicy was a Food Spirit born out of Twice-Cooked Pork.
Twice-Cooked Pork was the dish that won Qin Lang the champion title in the Dongxia City Cooking Competition. How could its Flavor Value possibly be less than 100?
So, actually, there was no need to test Spicy’s Flavor Value.
A moment later, when Spicy walked out, her Flavor Value was displayed on the screen.
[ioo]
“Crack-a-boom!”
Seeing that her taste value had reached the limit of a one-star food spirit, an exuberant expression showed up on Spicy’s face right away.
She didn’t notice at all that no one around her was surprised by her Flavor Value.
“Gurlulu-”
Dan Bao shook its head from the side.
Spicy still knew little about their Spirit Chef’s culinary skills.
After spending more time, it would be, like itself, unfazed by reaching the Flavor Value limit.
Become aloof. Keep it cool.
Qin Lang ruffled Dan Bao and Spicy’s heads, revealing a smile.
Though it wasn’t much of a suspense, testing the new Flavor Values of the two Food Spirits was like witnessing their growth.
And, just because their Flavor Value can reach the limit now doesn’t mean the Flavor Value of their future Food Spirits will max out each time they star-up.
Even though Qin Lang had reached Special Class 1 in his previous life, there were more Special Class 1 chefs, and he didn’t think his culinary skills were unrivaled.
The pursuit of delicious food is endless.
“Alright, my turn to test!” After Qin Lang finished his test, Qi Xiaoyu eagerly stepped up with Xiu Xiu.
Soon, Xiu Xiu flew out of the tester and the number on the screen changed.
[69]
“Yay! It’s increased by 7!”
Qi Xiaoyu saw the new Flavor Value and immediately revealed a satisfied expression.
She doesn’t compare herself with a freak like Qin Lang.
An increase in a Food Spirit’s Flavor Value means that her culinary skills of cooking Xiu Xiu’s Origin Cuisine have improved.
When she first tested after her Food Spirit was born, the result was 62. Now, it’s 69.
To increase 7 Flavor Value points in just 20 days, she already considers it excellent.
“Weiwei, want to give it a try?”
“I…” Du Weiwei hesitated for a moment then shook her head, “I don’t need to.”
For one thing, she tested a few days ago and there’s a low chance of improvement in such a short period of time.
On the other hand, after seeing the Flavor Value of Dan Bao, she was a little reluctant to let Qin Lang know her Food Spirit’s Flavor Value.
“Huh Yi~”
Little Glutinous Rice rubbed Du Weiwei’s hand. The look in its big eyes was full of anticipation.
It wanted to give it a try.
“Come on! Look, Little Glutinous Rice also wants to test!” Qi Xiaoyu chuckled, grabbing Du Weiwei’s hand and shaking it.
“This…OK, then.”
Seeing this, Du Weiwei nodded.
“Emyee!”
Little Glutinous Rice cheered, flying into the Testing Area and then quickly returned.
Soon, its Flavor Value appeared on the screen.
[137]
This Flavor Value was far from reaching the upper limit of a Two-star Food Spirit.
This meant that the gap between Little Glutinous Rice and Dan Bao’s Combat Power Value was not small when they fought.
“Don’t worry, Weiwei, we will train our cooking skills together!” Qi Xiaoyu, standing by her side, pulled Du Weiwei’s hand, her face full of determination.
Although she wasn’t measuring up to Qin Lang, the maniac, she, who had been somewhat slack in the past, was still stimulated by Qin Lang.
“Mmm.” Du Weiwei hugged Little Glutinous Rice and nodded.
Not only did she need to improve Little Glutinous Rice’s Flavor Value, but also hurry up and generate her Second Food Spirit.
“Dang dang dang-”
Closing the front door and turning on the light, Qin Lang looked at Spicy, who was curiously looking around, and revealed a warm smile, “This is the home of Dan Bao and me, and now it’s your home too.”
“Gurulu!”
Let me show you around our house!
Dan Bao enthusiastically began.
And this time, Spicy obediently followed.
The innocent Spicy now understood the meaning of home.
“Hoo~”
Taking the opportunity of the two Food Spirits leaving, Qin Lang collapsed onto the sofa to rest for a while. He then sat up and opened the box that he had been carrying, placing it on the tea table.
Inside, there was the city-level Cooking Competition champion medal he had taken off after the award ceremony, three First-level Food Recommender Badges, and the Distant Light Badge gleaming silver under the light.
He was already the champion of the Dongxia City Cooking Competition…
So what should he do next?
Carefully thinking about it, less than a month had passed since he crossed to this world.
The reason he could adapt so quickly was not only because he got the original body’s memory and skipped much of the process of exploration and understanding but also because he started striving for the City-level Cooking Competition shortly after he crossed over.
When you have a goal, you don’t overthink many things.
Now that this short-term goal was completed, what Qin Lang felt besides joy was the confusion he had been suppressing before.
“Ding dong-”
The ringing of the phone interrupted Qin Lang’s thoughts.
“Uncle Luo Hui?”
“Haha, congratulations on winning the city-level competition!” Luo Hui’s hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone, “Because you are working in the restaurant, there were especially many food guests tonight, I’ve been busy until now only to find some free time!”
Hearing this, Qin Lang showed a slight smile, “That’s good, how’s the practice of Steamed Bass going?”
“I’ve practiced it many times.” Luo Hui smiled, “Although there’s still room for improvement, it can already be sold. I’ve lowered the price a bit, so the sales are pretty good.”
“Oh, 1 almost forgot the real matter.” Luo Hui was talking, suddenly remembered something, and quickly turned the topic back to the purpose of this call, “I’ve prepared a gift for you and have sent it to your mailbox, which you may need.”
“All?” Qin Lang blinked, looking for it in his mailbox while asking, “What gift?”
“A travel guide for the eleven cities in Tianhua State, excluding Dongxia City.” Luo Hui laughed, “I haven’t been to other states, but I know other cities in Tianhua State very well.”
While Luo Hui was talking, Qin Lang had already seen the gift Luo Hui sent in his mailbox.
It was a very detailed travel guide.
Detailing which local restaurants have what featured local foods worth trying, which places are worth visiting and playing in, and what ingredients can be obtained locally were all clearly listed.
“Having obtained the Distant Light Badge, 1 think you’ll try to get other badges next, which means you’ll definitely need to go to other cities. This guide should be of help to you.”
“Thank you, Uncle Luo Hui.” Qin Lang gratefully replied.
The gift from Luo Hui was also a guiding light.
He suddenly realized that he didn’t seem to have come to the point where he was confused about his future path.
